★★★★★ SmartPlaylist is the most advanced playlist generator for iPod/iPhone/iPad with many unique features.
You can combine 14 search rules (comments, rating, play count, last played, etc.) to filter your iTunes music library.
TAB BAR FOR EASY SWITCHING:
● With the tab bar on top you can switch easily between smart playlist A, B, C, D, E or F (+ G on iPad)
● No need to bother with typing in "meaningful names" -- the rules always tell you what's "inside"
SEARCH IN TEXT FIELDS:
● You can search by Artist, Title, Album, Composer, Genre, Comments, Lyrics and/or iPod-Playlist.
● Search for exact matches (is equal to), for any partial matches (contains) or use wildcards (?/*)
● Use logical operators to unite (OR), intersect (AND) or exclude (NOT) certain songs.
★ The rule "Genre contains blu OR zz" will give you all your blues and jazz songs in 1 playlist. Quick and simple ★
MUSIC BROWSER: (similar to the Column Browser in iTunes)
● Browse your music collection hierarchically by Genres ➤ Composers ➤ Artists ➤ Albums ➤ Titles
● At each level you can pick 1, several or all items to collect the desired sets or narrow down your search

EXCEPTIONAL:
● Make exceptions to the rules by adding or removing individual titles from a list using ⊕⊖ (⊕: include, ⊖: exclude)
UNIQUE MIX OPTIONS:

● Limit the number of titles per artist or per album

ADVANCED SET OPERATIONS:
